Lyrics

Alone

[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]

Start scraping the dirt from my lights and I can maybe forget you

If you change all your blacks into whites then I can probably forgive you

It the colours mix together the greyness it will probably kill me

It the colours mix together the greyness it will probably kill me

Oh, it will probably kill me

Not knowing who I am

[Chorus]

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

Oh, I don't wanna spend another night not knowing who you are

[Verse 2]

So can we turn all of the sadness down, are you aware of the standstill?

Girl you can say that this is slowly degrading, evaporating youth pill

As our faces merge into one I feel our colours fading

As our colours turn into one I feel our faces ageing

You know we shouldn't be ageing

We've turned the page too soon

[Pre-Chorus]

It's more than enough

But enough is not enough

Can't you see why I'm running away?

It's more than enough

But enough if enough

Can you see why I'm running away?

You see why I'm running away

Cause more is enough knowing you will get me

[Chorus]

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

I don't wanna spend another night alone with you

Oh, I don't wanna spend another night not knowing who you are
